Interesting thread:

'Obamacare can be killed without single Democrat vote'

[ClearCase_guy]

The GOP will shave off a few million and declare victory.

They better do better than $100 Billion a year -OR- 1$ trillion in 10 years..

Rand Paul's $500 Billion figure this year is more like it..
10 years of $500 billion cuts yearly is more like it..

So Erkel Mugabe has a credit card with a few trillion limit at 30% interest that he wants to use for investing at 2% interest ?

If we are really this broke, than nothing is off the table as far as I’m concerned. In retrospect, we should have just exported the F22.

We have a YEARLY deficit of $1.3+ Trillion and Dumbo is proud of cutting $1.1 Trillion in 10 YEARS.

This guy has no clue about anything.

[Mister Da]

Yeah, I know what Obama would cut: He'll gut the military along with the very few worthwhile gov’t programs. Don't ask me to name a worthwhile gov’t program cause it is late & my mind is drawing a blank on that one.

...as White House budget director Jack Lew said the cuts will put the government on track to halve the budget deficit by the end of obama's first term in office in 2012.

Respectfully Mr. Lew, you're either lying, don't have a clue about your job, or both. There is no way a mere 1.1 Trillion over 10 years in any way "puts the government on track" to halve the budget deficit. Even if it did, we cannot afford to be running a deficit, period. Halving it would be no victory.

By the way, what's this {expletive} about "obama's first term?" Try only term. No, scratch that, how about illegal occupation!

[AlwaysThinking]

Given that the current deficit is around $1.5 trillion, dutting the deficit by $1.1 trillion still leaves us deficit spending around half a trillion dollars a year...unsustainable, unacceptable, and frankly unbelievable.

The only deficit reduction that is credible is in spending that is cut NOW. Spending needs to be cut immediately and deeply enough to be meaningful, otherwise we may be toast.

[Artcore]

Obama should be tried for treason and be subject to the most severe consequences under the law.

This POS should go to jail for the rest of his miserable, Marxist life for what he’s done to this country!

The Kenyan’s probably too stupid or strung out on crack to remember that he fully supported the Egyptian people’s uprising against a “thug dictator.” You had better remember your own words Kenyan...they may come back to haunt you one day.

[NormsRevenge]

Full Spend Ahead!! Damn the deficits!!
